Design your own visually appealing seating plan! Frustrated by the dull look of seating plans and uninspired shapes we have to work with, I decided to make my own “build your own interactive seating plan” that is realistic, very cute and can be customised to ANY classroom! I have created a range of unique clip art of different classroom furniture as seen from a bird’s eye view so that you can move and resize any image to suit your classroom layout! If there are any furniture pieces you would like me to include in this set, email me at teachersresourceforce@yahoo.com and I may just toss them in the set for free! :D Check out the preview to see more detail of what is included! You will really enjoy making your own very cute seating plan for your classroom, and as it is on a PowerPoint you can move the furniture and students’ names around effortlessly, perfect for a quick change! You could even have it displayed on the whiteboard to show your class so they know where to sit when you introduce a new seating chart or to give to a supply teacher so your students can’t get one up on them (you know they’re gonna try…!) Images include: • High school single desk • Chair • Stool • Swivel chair • Double desk • Semi circle desk • Round desk • Square desk • Rug / carpet • Teacher’s desk • Computer • Girl • Boy All images come in color and black line, 300dpi png with transparent backgrounds and closely cropped: great for layering and enlarging whilst still remaining crisp! Seating plans are crucial for behaviour management and are excellent to show during lesson observations as they are fantastic for targeting special needs and target grades as well, which have all been considered in this interactive seating plan! So have fun making your own cute seating plans for your classroom!

Do you want to educate your students about the dangers of Cyber Bullying? It is a rising problem among teenagers and young people in this age of social media, so this resource will offer your students the opportunity to consider the dangers and effects of cyber bullying by encouraging them to discuss and reflect on realistic scenarios.

This resource has made a significant difference to my students and I can only hope they go on to spread the word to others! I hope that my resources save you hours and hours of time: something we always sacrifice so much of as teachers. ❤
